A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Kat Croft is a producer and director who champions stories of complex, spirited and adventurous characters. She is a Sundance/Women in Film Lab Fellow (2019) and Women in Film Mentee (2022). She is the producer and co-director of a comedy/horror and romantic comedy penned by Susan Burke (Smashed, Southbound, Stan Against Evil). Kat's debut comedy short, Mila & Mimi Too (2019) which she directed, premiered as an official selection of HBO'S Women in Comedy Festival (2019) and won the Female Storyteller Award from Women Rising (2019). It went on to generate belly laughs across the festival circuit. Kat got her start in film and television creating worlds in the art departments of Dawson's Creek, New Best Friend and HBO's Iron-Jawed Angels.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
